Coach Erik ten Hag always wishes to have De Jong in the MU squad

According to journalist Achraf Ben Ayad, Barca continue to fall into a bad financial situation and will need to sell some bright names to register new players and avoid being punished by La Liga.

This person said, De Jong is once again included in the list and Barca will sell him if they receive a good offer.

In a recent statement about his future, De Jong expressed his happiness and desire to continue playing at the Nou Camp. However, the Dutch midfielder also admitted that no one can predict the future.

Last summer, MU spent most of their time pursuing De Jong and Barca also agreed to sell, but the midfielder refused to negotiate, even though his former coach Erik ten Hag tried to persuade him, he did not change his mind.

De Jong has shown his important role at Barca last season and surely coach Xavi will need him more in the new campaign.

However, it remains to be seen whether Barca will try to "push" De Jong away again.

Coach Erik ten Hag has always wanted De Jong in his squad and he will not give up if MU has the chance.

MU's transfer situation is currently quite gloomy as the club has not yet finalized any contracts.

MU plans to buy Mohammed Kudus

ESPN said that coach Erik ten Hag is considering bringing Ajax midfielder Mohammed Kudus to MU.

MU set a target to sign Mason Mount from Chelsea and the midfielder also agreed to play at Old Trafford. However, after 3 bids were rejected by Chelsea, the Red Devils decided to stop the deal.

United's final offer for Mason Mount was £55m, including £5m in add-ons. But Chelsea wanted more, despite the England international having just one year left on his contract and refusing to extend.

Among the targets chosen by MU to replace Mason Mount is Kudus, who coach Erik ten Hag worked with at Ajax. The Red Devils captain believes Kudus' playing style is suitable for the Premier League.

MU did not renew De Gea's contract at the last minute?

David de Gea is facing an uncertain future, as his contract with MU ends on June 30.

British media revealed that initially, the Manchester team proposed to reduce his salary from 375,000 pounds/week to 200,000 pounds/week and De Gea agreed, just waiting for the day to sign the extension.

However, after the 2022/23 season ended, coach Ten Hag changed his view on the goalkeeper position. He was not satisfied with De Gea's footwork and unstable mentality in important matches.

It was the Dutch coach who suggested that the board withdraw the contract offer to De Gea, even though the two sides had basically agreed on the terms.

Instead, MU sent a second offer with a much lower salary. This move disappointed De Gea, making him no longer eager to stay at Old Trafford.

Several Saudi Arabian clubs are currently courting De Gea with attractive salaries. However, he is also considering returning home to play for a La Liga club.

As for the Red Devils, coach Ten Hag also listed 3 potential targets to replace De Gea next season.

Leading the pack is Andre Onana, valued at over £40m by Inter Milan. In addition, David Raya (Brentford) and Diogo Costa (Porto) are two backup options.

Onana is a modern goalkeeper, possessing excellent footwork and passing skills under pressure. That was demonstrated in the recent Champions League final against Man City.

Coach Ten Hag also understands the ability and qualities of the Cameroon goalkeeper, because the two had a period of working together at Ajax.
